Land with Home for Sale in Nathrop, Colorado
16602 County Road 289, Nathrop, CO 81236
Tucked beneath the towering Chalk Cliffs on 3.11 pristine acres, this rustic yet refined mountain retreat invites you to slow down and experience Colorado at its most beautiful. Framed by panoramic views of Mt. Princeton, Mt. Antero, and the sweeping valley below, the setting is nothing short of extraordinary—where golden sunsets stretch across the horizon and peaceful mornings begin with crisp mountain air and endless skies. Designed for comfort and flexibility, the 1,421-square-foot home spans two thoughtfully arranged levels, creating the ideal full-time residence, weekend getaway, or adventure basecamp. Upstairs, natural light pours into the welcoming living space, where French doors open to a view-filled balcony perfectly positioned for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply taking in the remarkable scenery. A full kitchen, comfortable living room, two bedrooms, and a spacious ¾ bath complete the upper level, blending warmth and functionality with effortless mountain charm. Downstairs, the spacious great room with a gas fireplace and private entrance offers endless possibilities for guests, recreation, or additional living space, along with laundry, storage, and a convenient half bath. An attached one-car garage, generous outdoor parking, and room to add a detached garage further enhance the property’s versatility. Beyond the home itself, the acreage opens the door to future possibilities, including space to build a primary residence while utilizing the existing home as a guest house or temporary residence during construction. Spend afternoons exploring the land, relaxing in the sunshine, or gathering around the firepit under star-filled Colorado skies. Private and serene, yet only minutes from the hot springs resort, endless backcountry recreation, and less than 20 minutes from downtown Buena Vista, this special property offers the rare opportunity to live immersed in nature without sacrificing convenience or adventure.
